  • AR Effects: the second feature is AR Effects, created by Instagram and Creators, and from this option, you can record multiple videos with different effects. This feature will come in handy for Creators.

 

  • Timer and Countdown: This is the third feature of the Reels, set your time to record your clips, click press record and you will see a reverse countdown timer i.e 3-2-1.

 

  • Align: Line up objects from your previous clip before recording next to help create seamless transitions for moments like outfit changes or adding new friends to your reel.

 

  • Speed: Choose to speed up or slow down part of the video or audio you selected. This can help you stay on the beat or make slow-motion videos.

 

TikTok may be banned in the US but it is banned in India and so Instagram Reels will be used by many Creators and public figures because the features are similar to TikTok and creators need similar platforms like TikTok.
